	Amend Floor Amendment No. 1 (floor substitute) by 
Representative Branch to CSSB 175, in SECTION 1 of the bill, as 
follows:
	(1)  Strike added Section 51.803(a-1), Education Code (page 
2, line 5, through page 3, line 17), and substitute the following:
	(a-1)  Beginning with admissions for the 2011-2012 academic 
year, The University of Texas at Austin is not required to offer 
admission to applicants who qualify for automatic admission under 
Subsection (a) in excess of the number required to fill 75 percent 
of the university's enrollment capacity designated for first-time 
resident undergraduate students in an academic year.  If the number 
of applicants who qualify for automatic admission to The University 
of Texas at Austin under Subsection (a) for an academic year exceeds 
75 percent of the university's enrollment capacity designated for 
first-time resident undergraduate students for that academic year, 
the university may elect to offer admission to those applicants as 
provided by this subsection and not as otherwise required by 
Subsection (a).  If the university elects to offer admission under 
this subsection, the university shall offer admission to those 
applicants by percentile rank according to high school graduating 
class standing based on grade point average, beginning with the top 
percentile rank, until the applicants qualified under Subsection 
(a) have been offered admission in the number estimated in good 
faith by the university as sufficient to fill 75 percent of the 
university's enrollment capacity designated for first-time 
resident undergraduate students, except that the university must 
offer admission to all applicants with the same percentile rank.  
After the applicants qualified for automatic admission under 
Subsection (a) have been offered admission under this subsection in 
the number estimated in good faith as sufficient to fill 75 percent 
of the designated enrollment capacity described by this subsection, 
the university shall consider any remaining applicants qualified 
for automatic admission under Subsection (a) in the same manner as 
other applicants for admission as first-time undergraduate 
students in accordance with Section 51.805.
	(2)  In added Section 51.803(a-2), Education Code (page 3, 
line 22), strike "60" and substitute "75".
